Table of ContentsReviewsDespite the book's size, the editors and publisher have kept the text accessible by adhering to a common format throughout. Each review chapter was written to stand alone and all 36 chapters include lists of contents and abbreviations, abstract, keywords, and reference section in addition to the main text. The book is organized logically, beginning with basic information about discoveries and derivations of serotonin and melatonin, continuing with contemporary approaches for detecting these two indoleamines, and ending with prevailing hypotheses and future directions for basic and applied research into linkages between plants and human health. The editors appear to have accomplished their stated aim, namely, to consolidate existing understanding of serotonin and melatonin biosynthesis. -- Wendy L. Applequist, Book Review Editor for Economic Botany. This is a very nice and attractive book that tries to bring the current understanding and developments in serotonin and melatonin biosynthesis, their role in environmental adaptation in plants, and their levels in food and medicinal plants and from dietary sources to human health. All these aspects have been fully described in this book. [...] The 36 chapters were written by many experts and researchers in this ?eld. This is an excellent textbook, is very useful, and could attract a huge number of scientists. It is very organized and well written. I would like to recommend this textbook for di?erent audiences including scientists, researchers, academicians, and professionals who are involved in plant and/or animal sciences. -- Samir A.
